Liquid eyeliner - there must be one....

Can someone please recommend me a liquid (or gel pen style) black eyeliner that doesn't leave hideous black marks all over my eyelids / smudge when I happen to walk through a bit of drizzle / require a degree to be able to apply it.

I have tried SO MANY. Cheap, expensive, they all just seem rubbish!

Collection Fast Stroke eyeliner! About £2.99 from Superdrug/Boots. Have been using it since I was about 12 and it never smudges, doesn't go crumbly and one pot lasts about 6 months. Can't recommended it enough.

Charlotte Tilbury gel pen? It didn't budge on me...

Stila Stay All Day works like a dream for me! My eyes stream when I laugh and this never budges.

You can get it from boots / asos / onlne etc

Stila is the best it always comes up well in product tests!!

bakeitup · 10/08/2017 11:06

Ah yes!! I have used that Stila one before and it was great but they stopped selling it on Space NK and I must have forgotten, off to track that down now! Thanks

I second the Collection one. The waterproof one is ace.

This one! www.kikocosmetics.com/en-gb/make-up/eyes/eyeliners/Definition-Waterproof-Eyeliner/p-KM0030200800144 - Sali Hughes recomended it in the Guardian and it's brilliant. I've tried loads and spent tonnes on trying to find a good one and this is really easy to apply, doesn't budge and dead cheap.

Like Tartan I use the waterproof Collection one in the blue pot. I use it to tightline my upper lid and must have used it for 10 years

Please treat yourself to Kat Von D tattoo liner. I'm clumsy and I can apply this perfectly whilst on a train.

It is the best gel liner pen I have EVER used. I've stopped using my Bobbi brown and Estée Lauder gel liner pots and brushes.

Another vote for Kat von D tattoo liner. It's the only liquid liner pen I've ever been able to use successfully. The brush tip is fab, the liner doesn't run into all the little eyelid wrinkles you didn't know you had, and it doesn't budge.

Just bought the Kat Von D due to recommendations here. I have ridiculously oily lids and I find that it fades and disappears at the flick after a full day of wearing it. Not bad at all but I had hoped for better.
I love the brush and how simple it is to use though.

Will be trying Stila and Kiko next. 😃

Nyx have some nice inexpensive ones in different sizes & shapes, the waterproof ones especially. Heard great things about the Kat Von D tattoo liner as others have said. I use Maybelline master precise but I have dry skin so can't speak for longevity. Essence have some really cheap ones that seem to have good reviews but I've yet to try them.
I've heard from an oily-lidded friend however, that the stila slipped right off for her.

Kat Von d liquid pen doesn't move all day
